Women’s Public Links Championship; Can Tiger Recover?
Women’s Public Links Championship
The Women’s Public Links Championship is being played just 45 minutes south of where I live so I’ll be attending this weekend’s matches in Pueblo, Colorado. The tournament is being played at Walking Stick Golf Course, a layout my brother and I have played many times over the years. It’s a links-style par-72 golf course that is being played to 6,263 yards this week and the women shouldn’t have too much trouble with the course as it’s in excellent shape (we played it a week ago).

So how will the death of Tiger’s father, and his performance at the U.S. Open affect him the remainder of the year? It’s hard to say and I’m fortunate that I haven’t lost an immediate family member so I can’t remotely relate to what he’s going through. Suffice to say that if chooses to take his time coming back the next time, then so be it, as he obviously wasn’t emotionally ready to play last week. I’m going to call the remainder of the year a wash for Woods, but look out next year. I have to believe that after this year’s U.S. Open debacle by the world’s best players, he’ll be chomping at the bit next year to make amends.
